Resumen
La lactancia natural es el alimento exclusivo que mayor cantidad de nutrientes ofrece al recién nacido, desde su nacimiento hasta que cumple los seis primeros meses de vida, según lo expresado por la Organización Mundial de la Salud y la Unicef, sin embargo muchas madres lactantes por desconocimiento, creencias erróneas y por falta de información no dan de lactar a sus bebes inmediatamente
después del parto factores que contribuyen a que no tenga lugar la lactancia materna,
por este motivo se planteó como objetivo, determinar la frecuencia y porcentaje sobre
lactancia materna en mujeres Post – parto atendidas en el Hospital Gineco Obstétrico
Enrique C. Sotomayor de la ciudad de Guayaquil. La metodología del estudio fue de
tipo cuantitativo, descriptivo, prospectivo, con el uso de técnica de la encuesta e
instrumento del cuestionario, de un universo de 246 mujeres post- parto se obtuvo una
muestra de 150 mujeres post – parto quienes aceptaron de manera voluntaria participar con la recolección de datos , para cumplir con el objetivo general y verificar la hipótesis. Los resultados más relevantes fueron que de 150 madres post – parto encuestadas, 39% fueron adolescentes, con nivel de instrucción primaria, en el 31% de casos no tenían experiencia porque fueron madres por primera vez, 66% no asistieron con frecuencia al control prenatal, el 87% de los casos desconocen la importancia de la lactancia materna, así como los beneficios que ofrece al lactante, desconociendo también las técnicas de amamantamiento, extracción y conservación de la leche materna, por lo que se planteó un programa educativo a pacientes post – parto, para informar y promover la lactancia materna inmediatamente después del
parto y asegurar que sea el alimento exclusivo hasta los seis meses de vida, para
mejorar la calidad de vida de los niños y de sus madres.
